General Activities

Do as much or as little as you like!

Renowned for a leisurely pace, many come to Lord Howe Island to simply rest and recuperate on holiday. However, whenever the urge arises there is always an amazing array of activities to choose from.

If you are feeling competitive then the sports of golf, tennis and even lawn bowls are available. There is swimming or kayaking in the calm waters of the lagoon. With Lord Howe's World Heritage status, hiking through subtropical rainforest, climbing the imposing peaks of Mt. Gower and Mt. Eliza or diving and snorkelling the world’s most southern reefs is a fantastic way to experience nature at its best. There’s also great surfing, the thrill of sport fishing, and even the usual mode of transport on Lord Howe Island is fun, with bicycles freely available to all Arajilla guests.
